@SloppyJoe - thanks for the consistency and quality of your posts. Really helpful !
I have since been in contact with the two flying school in ABQ and have been given the below costs. (I'm hoping we are allowed to discuss costs on here
)
DelSol-
Private Pilot - $7,000
Instrument Rating - $6,000
Commercial Pilot with time building - $30,000
Bode-
Private - $8000.00 to $10,000.00
instrument rating -$10,000 to $15,000 (due to the required cross-country PIC requirement)
commercial pilot license -$10,000 to $15,000
Athough they arent too farflung and amount to similar total cost, it seems to me that a considerable amount could be saved by, say, doing PPL & IR at DelSol, and CPL and Bode.!
Can anyone comment on the above prices, and would the above suggestion of utlising both schools to minimise total investment be a wise one???
